1 Nitrogen-centered and beta-carbon-centered hydrogen-deficient peptide radicals are considered to be intermediates in the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization in-source decay (MALDI-ISD)-induced Calpha-C bond cleavage of peptide backbones when using an oxidizing matrix. Nitrogen carbonic anhydrase 2 Homo sapiens
2 The calculations indicate that the nitrogen-centered radical immediately undergoes Calpha-C bond cleavage, leading to the formation of an a /x fragment pair. Nitrogen carbonic anhydrase 2 Homo sapiens
3 The intense signal arising from d fragments and the lack of or weak signal from a fragments strongly suggest that the Calpha-C bond cleavage occurs through a nitrogen-centered radical intermediate. Nitrogen carbonic anhydrase 2 Homo sapiens
